Yes, there are penalties for not following certain guidelines in Rossendale. The council has implemented fixed penalty notices (FPNs) to combat various offences such as fly-tipping and dog fouling. Here's a summary of the penalties:
| Offence | Penalty Description | Payment Deadline | Consequence of Non-Payment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fly-tipping | Increased FPN fines as part of robust enforcement | N/A | Not specified, likely prosecution |
| Dog fouling | Fixed penalty notice issued | Payable within 14 days | Prosecution for failure to pay |
For dog fouling, the council conducts patrols and issues fines to offenders. If a fine isn't paid, the individual may face prosecution. For fly-tipping, while specific fines weren't mentioned, the council emphasizes stricter penalties to deter this crime.
